I'm running FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE-p7 (haven't cvsupped in awhile) and JRE
1.4.2_05 (the Linux .bin distribution). 

I have had similar results in that Freenet will run for a seemingly
random amount of time, sometimes an hour or so, sometimes several days.
Then, out of nowhere, Java will dump core along with an hs_err_pid* file
indicating that Java died upon receiving signal 11, but no data was
available regarding the crash. I've always chalked this oddness up to
the fact that I was running the Linux Java on FreeBSD.

I have written a cronjob and some accompanying scripts, such that the
cronjob runs once per minute, and ensures that Freenet is running, and
if not, runs it, unless I had at some prior point manually run
./stop-freenet.sh, in which case the script realizes that I had
intentionally stopped Freenet, and does not fire it up.

I have no problem sharing these scripts (you will need PHP installed) if
you want them, but they will almost certainly require modifications in
the way - and under which user - you run Freenet.
